Securing of Computer Forensics Evidence
Preparing for a computer investigation is just as important as maintaining and documenting the evidence once it is collected. Every computer investigator must know how to use a forensic toolkit. This toolkit can be an investigator’s “best friend” during an investigation and can, ultimately, lead to the prosecution of computer-related crimes.
Tasks:
Using the textbook and the Argosy University online library resources, prepare a 3- to 4-page paper addressing the following:
• Discuss the presearch activities that need to be addressed during a computer investigation. Briefly summarize each step.
• Describe the equipment present in a forensic toolkit.
• Summarize the use of each tool. Elaborate on the importance of using a toolkit.
